Play
The blaze at a granary in Lop Buri's Chai Badan district on Tuesday was unlikely to have been arson, Lop Buri Governor Thanakom Jongjiri said on Wednesday.
The granary, which is surrounded by a fence, stores only broken rice, he said. The governor spoke after joining a police forensic team investigating the granary fire in the district’s Tambon Lamnarai.
It is one of the hundreds of governmentowned granaries used for keeping rice under the controversial ricepledging scheme.
